Default Engine build up suggestions

Here is what I have....I have a 91 302 engine with 29,000 original miles that I will be placing in my 86 coupe. The car will be converted to mass air and I have a 5-6 lb self contained s/c produced by paxton. My questions are:Would it make sense to change the cam (larger) without changing the heads or do I need to do both at the same time? Any advice as to what combination would workwell with thes/c? By the way..the car is a 5spd.

Thanks,

DW
